Summer Time is HERE!



Well, it's finally hot and summer time is here!  The kids are enjoying every minute of being outside, playing in the pool and at the park and have started all the summer activities one family can handle!

This week started the library summer reading program.  Molly and Ry go on Thursday mornings to a class taught by Mrs. Mahee (McGee) and Molly was so excited that she had an actual unicorn watch and earrings!  Katie is going to the lapsit class taught by one of our favorite people, Ms. Lynn.  She gets to sit and hear stories and she colored her first picture last week.  It was a masterpiece and I'm sure she is very gifted (wink, wink). 

We're also in the midst of VBS this week!  Fun, Fun, Fun!  The kids have been singing some great songs all about loving God more!  I love hearing them sing and I love it when they tell me what they've learned.  I am so thankful for the teachers who take the time to teach my kids - and the other 20 preschool aged children in that room!  Yikes! 

Katie is learning to say more words and just had her first birthday last month!  She's got 8 teeth and goes a mile a minute. 

Ryan is just as much fun as ever.  He's reallllly into watching Scooby Doo and he and Molly love to pretend they're the "Gang" solving mysteries.

We're all getting excited about homeschooling too.  We've got our table, storage cabinet, curriculum, posters and just about everything we need for our classroom, with the exception of our computer which is next on our list.

We also bought a pool pass to the Oakland pool for the summer so we're hoping to go over and check it out a few times next week and hopefully the kids will learn to swim this summer.

We're planning a secret trip to Disney this fall.  We can hardly wait!!!  We're staying at Disney and bought the Disney dining plan.  Andy and I are so excited that we can't stand it.  We're keeping it a secret though for several reasons.  First, to surprise them and second, because we don't want to hear everyday from now until then "Are we going to Disney today?"

We are ever so blessed.  Go has been so good and so gracious to us.  We are so thankful for such a wonderful and loving church family.  Not much time goes by before I am again reminded of how great God is and how wonderful he was to make us a part of the First Baptist Church in Atwood.  "Truly blessed" would be an understatement.

I hope you're all having a fantastic summer!
